Tuesday was grey, coolish (25C) with slow-moving low, dark, heavy clouds. You could feel something was brewing in the air. Around 9pm, all hell broke loose. Strong winds, heavy rains, lightning strikes in the harbour and rumbling rolling thunder further away. Outside my window, I swear to you, lightning bolts along with very loud bangs. SIMULTANEOUSLY.
Nick G in an email says he saw lightning strikes hit Shek Kwu Chau, Sea Ranch [Lantau island]. Awesome.
I powered everything down, unplugged, and enjoyed the show.
Today is, if you are interested, Wednesday. Grey and cool (25C), with rains sometimes hard. Forecast for this evening? Rain heavy at times, with squally thunderstorms. Squally? That's not a word that gets too much use. According to here: probably of Scandinavian origin; akin to Old Norse skvala, to squeal.
